Read the index.html file located in the TriggerDuplicator directory

I bet there's a way you can do it without duplicating everything

What are you trying to do?

I like to use Textpad and the Find/Replace function.

Report, edit, etc...Posted by KABOOM on 2006-05-07 at 12:25:12

ok so

KillUnitAt(currentplayer, archon, 1, $5);
SetDeaths(currentplayer, mineralfield(type1), setto, $1);

this is pretty much the just of my problem so i want the top one to go up by 4 and the bottom one by 1...how?

How many of those triggers are you doing? If you only need a few, just manually copy and paste them, and replace the numbers.

If you have many of those triggers with different units, use text pad. Copy them all, then use find and replace , 1, $5); with , 1, $9);, and same thing with the other one. This way, you won't accidentally replace random numbers. After u do that, paste all the 5's again, but replace them with 13's. Then, paste the 5's again, and replace with 17's. Keep going until you get to however many numbers you want, then put it back into SCMD.

If you have many different units and many different numbers, you could still do the textpad way...

Why use textpad when trigger duplicator does it so quickly?

QUOTE

Open the map, and using View Triggers, insert this trigger into the duplicator. Now, set up the variables:

For X, make it go from 5 to (however high you want it) with an interval of 4. Now, replace "-5" with "$x". Then, go into "Other Variables" and make it so "a" starts at 6 with an interval of 4, "b" starts at 7 with an interval of 4, and "c" starts at 8 with an interval of 4. Then, replace every "-6" with "$a", -7 with $b, and -8 with $c. And you're set!

Another option would be instead of using 3 more variables to simply put x+1 for -5, x+2 for -6, x+3 for -7, and x+4 for -8.

Once you have it all set up, just hit compile triggers and save the map!

i got 2 extremely easy solutions

click copy when you select a trigger or export trigs then re-import them

Explain the bug more. Does it remove the text if you remove the trigger after?
